RCN Local Learning Event – Just Ask – Could This Be Sepsis?

October 23, 2018

Sepsis claims thousands of lives every year – more than breast cancer, bowel cancer, prostate cancer and HIV/AIDS combined.

Sepsis is a life-threatening condition arising when the body’s dysregulated response to infection causes injury to its tissues and organs.

This practical workshop, presented by Georgina McNamara, Executive Lead Nurse for Education at UK Sepsis Trust, aims to:

• bring together healthcare professionals to shape better sepsis care
• help you recognise the signs and symptoms of sepsis
• ensure you understand ‘the sepsis six’, and how the timely delivery of these simple interventions improves patient outcome.

The Learning Event is free for RCN members, while non-members will be charged £20 + VAT – this fee will be reimbursed if the attendee joins the RCN on the day.

The workshop will be followed by the RCN Birmingham West and Sandwell Annual General Meeting, where you can get involved in shaping the future of your branch, have your say on how your local branch is run, and learn more about the activities the branch undertakes.
